Thread: I'm short-hair challenged

So I semi-chopped off all my hair.

It's not THAT short. It's still past my shoulders, but its considerably shorter than I have had in years. Especially the top layer. I only go in every few months to get my hair done, cause I trim it myself and cant be bothered to pay out the ass for colour every 3 weeks since my hair grows so damn fast. I grew 4.5 inches in 3 months. So I got her to cut off a lot more than usual, so it wouldn't get too long as quickly as it usually does.

In the mean time, though, I have no idea what to do with it. Everything I used to be able to do, doesn't work, or just looks stupid, now. I can't pull it back into a low pony tail, or I end up with my top layer going all over the place. I hate high-pony tails, on me anyways.

It's not curling well, naturally or with a curling iron.

I'm not sure if I'm mentally challenged when it comes to doing short hair, or if I just kinda got a shitty cut thats difficult to work with.

All I know is my hair hasn't been this short since I was 12, maybe, and Im very frustrated.

So what things do YOU do to your shorter hair for low-maintenece days and for more done up days. I tried to pin it up into some sort of up do and just looked retarded.

I would say just spritz some of the spritzable hair gel in it, shake it around, and go for a cute messy short hair-do.

If you want hair out of your face, I would pin back the middle bangs, that's always cute, and you don't have to use a million bobby pins.
